WOW! How we change. Some friends in a town I lived in 40 years ago sent me some pics and from age 30 to 70 we definitely change. Some I had to blow up to a larger size to recognize and even then it took a while. Then I received a group pic how we looked 40 years ago. A couple people I recognized right away but others it took some work. Oh well, not much we can do is there;)
 
Nope not much we can do...we all age , and some change due to simple passing years..others due to illness or a stressful life...

Just be glad you're all still alive!! :)

Good advice, HD...none of us look the same as we did back then. Funny, how we have these images stuck in our minds.

I agree. I still think of myself as young and often surprise myself when I look in the mirror.
For some reason I don’t feel like an older person. Lol But then again, I don’t act like an older person either

Same here keesha.. I've never thought of myself as looking like my mother although I knew I didn't look like my father, but lately I'm catching glimpses of my mother when I psss the mirror, it's obvious. the strange part is that my mother died at 39 years old.. and I'm now over 60.. so either I look young for my age or my mum look older... I think it was the latter, she had a hard life!!!
 
I think most of us look younger in our mind's eye. :D The last time I went to a class reunion I thought everyone looked old except me. :lol:
